    imo after seeing how froch got the nod last night....


    all ward has to do is win 4 rounds and he can probably get the go ahead...

    Because back in the US nobody is going to belittle him for a negative performance like that. Froch went to the US to fight Taylor and he WON the fight with a last-gasp effort. Dirrell was negative all night. Good riddance, I never want to see him fight again if he puts in performances that negative. He got exactly what he deserved.

    dirrell wasnt negative. the big difference between taylor and dirrell for me last night was dirrell kept froch's confidence in check with combos when he needed to.

    taylor did the same thing all night and allowed AA to grow in confidence by not mixing it up.

    dirrell knows he isn't a big puncher and its smart how he fought last night.

    in your opinion what should have dirrell done man?


    he has to fight to his strenghts and exploit his opponents weaknesses...

    froch =

    slow
    strong
    bad puncher
    amazing chin

    he negated everything froch had while scoring points... i just hate to see guys get deducted points because they dont go in and bang heads when thats not in their style set to begin with

    Ofcourse you dont want to see him fight again, because you only watch Froch fights and he'd school that bum 100 times out of a 100

    Are you implying that all these are fixed ???

    What's the connection between Froch's fight last night on Ward's incoming fight on Nov? Same ref? Same judge? What?

    Grow up boii . . . for Christ sake and stop being a paranoid.

    True, but also very ironic. It sounds like:

    "And they wonder why I'm fighting at home - because I'll have the judges on my side in all 3 fights."

    Every other fighter than Ward is travelling once or twice (Abraham, Taylor, Kessler and Froch twice), but Ward gets the hometown support for all 3 fights. And he's proud of it.:patsch
